Yeah absolutely, I'm not disagreeing with you. But if you had to drive across town to perform the work, and say you didn't know beforehand that it was a float or you didn't have the right type with you and had to go to the store, then your total amount of time spent port to port would likely be more than an hour. How much is your time worth? I am a technician , my work charges over $200/hr labor rate. About half that goes to me. There is overhead with coordination, vehicle costs, tools, etc... Basically what I'm saying is that yeah, the physical work only takes 10 minutes, but much more goes into the cost than just that.
If the plumber is your mom's neighbor and has the float already, then yeah it's pricey but if they had to drive 30 minutes to get there and go to the store for the part, it really isn't that crazy. Also is it a legitimate business or just an under the table side job? Location in the country matters too.
There's a cool video that talks about that title screen - how it was quite a feat to get that large image to load. They had to deploy a bunch of tricks to make it work. Love that image, and the game of course is one of my favorites of all time. Thanks for the upload!
I only know because I interned there and it's something they talked about. Maybe it was always preceded with 'civil' I just don't remember that as well. The big issue amongst the workers when I was there was that in principle they supported Citizens United, and most of the employees did not support it in practice.
Just adding my experience to the topic, not sure why I got down voted for it. I'm not trying to push anyone to be libertarian just pointing out other ways the definition can be used.
I would like to throw out there that the ACLU is a libertarian organization that would likely line up with the majority of the beliefs of Lemmy users. With that said I understand most people aren't using libertarian in its 'correct' meaning as the ACLU does.
First console I downloaded dlc on (Skies of Arcadia)
First game I uploaded my own content for (Jet Grind Radio)
First console I emulated games on (Genesis and NES)
First console I downloaded and burnt discs of full games (too many)
I have the soundcore liberty air 2. They have good sound quality and fit the bill for what you're looking for. Looks like $30 on Amazon. That said, I do need to push them in occasionally while exercising but I haven't experienced earbuds where I don't have to do that.

That picture is so intense
I got in trouble for doing homework at school. Homework is supposed to be done at Home, not at school, I was told.
Absolutely. There's no real use for the opposite.
Another one here for the API exodus 👍
Wish they would've said 'gleaming the cube'
Missed opportunity

I majored in Philosophy and am now a commercial HVAC mechanic. 🤷
I enjoyed this series. Some cool concepts, I really like the trisolarian technologies. Like the description of the probe and sophons.
I just checked Reddit to see if this headline was there, and I didn't find it. At least not near the top anywhere. Isn't that strange? /s

I agree. And I cant rightfully feel that way and not contribute more so here's to turning a new leaf

And I raised some really nice Chao (SA2)
What a great console.
In case anyone didn't know - ryu's hands appear in the hadouken. Blew my mind back in elementary school
Beautiful
I got in trouble for doing homework at school. Because it was meant to be done at home.
